Grids functionally combine globally distributed computers and information systems for creating a universal source of computing power and information. A key characteristic of grids ...
Data-intensive parallel applications on clouds need to deploy large data sets from the cloud's storage facility to all compute nodes as fast as possible. Many multicast algori...

We analyze the performance of protocols for load balancing in distributed systems based on no-regret algorithms from online learning theory. These protocols treat load balancing a...
Load balance is a critical issue in distributed systems, such as server grids. In this paper, we propose a Balanced Load Queue (BLQ) model, which combines the queuing theory and hy...
We consider a dynamic load balancing scenario in which users allocate resources in a non-cooperative and selfish fashion. The perceived performance of a resource for a user decre...
